单选题 Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they
remember something they learned as children but have never practiced still swim
as well as ever since. A man when he gets hack who has not had a chance to go
swimming for years can in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years
and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A
mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the
poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star", remember the story of
Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears. One explanation
is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows. Once we have learned
something, additional learning trials (尝试)increase the length of time we will
remember it. In childhood we usually continue to practice such
skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have
learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as
"Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and
Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn. The multiplication
tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather
quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the
things we overlearn in childhood. The law of overlearning
explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a
passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming,
a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he
is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on
the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.

单选题E Federal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergence alert (警报) system using text messages delivered to cell phones. Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people. The wireless industry's trade association, CTIA, estimates(估计) more than 48 billion text messages are sent each month. The plan comes from the Warning Alert and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law that requires improvements to the nation's emergency alert system. The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with coming up with new ways to alert the public about emergencies. "The ability to deliver accurate and timely warnings and alerts through cell phones and other mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before, and during, disasters and other emergencies," FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan. Participation in the alert system by carriers telecommunications companies is voluntary, but it has received solid support from the wireless industry. The program would be optional for cell phone users. They also may not be charged for receiving alerts. There would be three different types of messages, according to the rules. The first would be a national alert from the president, likely involving a terrorist attack or natural disaster. The second would involve "approaching threats," which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings. The third would be reserved for child abduction (绑架) emergencies, or so-called Amber Alerts. The service could be in place by 2010.
单选题The rough guide to marketing success used to be that you got what you paid for.No longer.While traditional“paid”media—such as television commercials and print advertisements—still play a major role,companies today can exploit many alternative forms of media.Consumers passionate about a product may create“earned”media by willingly promoting it to friends.and a company may leverage“owned”media by sending e-mail alerts about products and sales to customers registered with its website.In fact,the way consumers now approach the process of making purchase decisions means that marketing’s impact stems from a broad range of factors beyond conventional paid media. Paid and owned media are controlled by marketers promoting their own products.For earned media,such marketers act as the initiator for users’responses.But in some cases,one marketer’s owned media become another marketer’s paid media—for instance,when an e-commerce retailer sells ad space on its website.We define such sold media as owned media whose traffic is so strong that other organizations place their content or e-commerce engines within that environment.This trend,which we believe is still in its infancy,effectively began with retailers and travel providers such as airlines and hotels and will no doubt go further.Johnson-Johnson,for example,has created Baby Center,a stand-alone media property that promotes complementary and even competitive products.Besides generating income,the presence of other marketers makes the site seem objective,gives companies opportunities to learn valuable information about the appeal of other companies’marketing,and may help expand user traffic for all companies concerned. The same dramatic technological changes that have provided marketers with more(and more diverse) communications choices have also increased the risk that passionate consumers will voice their opinions in quicker,more visible,and much more damaging ways.Such hijacked media are the opposite of earned media:an asset or campaign becomes hostage to consumers,other stakeholders,or activists who make negative allegations about a brand or product.Members of social networks,for instance,are learning that they can hijack media to apply pressure on the businesses that originally created them. If that happens,passionate consumers would try to persuade others to boycott products,putting the reputation of the target company at risk.In such a case,the company’s response may not be sufficiently quick or thoughtful,and the learning curve has been steep.Toyota Motor,for example,alleviated some of the damage from its recall crisis earlier this year with a relatively quick and well-orchestrated social-media response campaign,which included efforts to engage with consumers directly on sites such as Twitter and the social-news site Digg.

单选题I think it's time that she makes up her mind.
单选题 Baekeland and Hartmann report that the "short
sleepers" had been more or less average in their sleep needs until the men were
in their teens. But at about age 15 or so, the men voluntarily began cutting
down their nightly sleep time because of pressures from school, work, and other
activities. These men tended to view their nightly periods of unconsciousness as
bothersome interruptions in their daily routines. In general,
these "short sleeps" appeared ambitious, active, energetic, cheerful, conformist
(不动摇) in their opinions, and very sure about their career choices. They often
held several jobs at once, or worked full-or part-time while going to school.
And many of them had a strong urge to appear "normal" or "acceptable" to their
friends and associates. When asked to recall their dreams, the
"short sleepers" did poorly. More than this, they seemed to prefer not
remembering. In similar fashion, their usual way of dealing with psychological
problems was to deny that the problem existed, and then to keep busy in the hope
that the trouble would go away. The sleep patterns of the
"short sleepers" were similar to, but less extreme than, sleep patterns shown by
many mental patients categorized as manic (疯人). The "long
sleepers" were quite different indeed. Baekeland and Hartmann report that these
young men had been lengthy sleeps since childhood. They seemed to enjoy their
sleep, protected it, and were quite concerned when they were occasionally
deprived of their desired 9 hours of nightly bed rest. They tended to recall
their dreams much better than did the "short sleepers." Many of
the "long sleepers" were shy, anxious, introverted (内向), inhibited (压抑),
passive, mildly depressed, and unsure of themselves (particularly in social
situations). Several openly states that sleep was an escape from their daily
problems.
单选题In general,our society is becoming one of giant enterprises directed by a bureaucraticmanagement in which man becomes a small,well-oiled cog in the machinery.The oiling is donewith higher wages,well-ventilated factories and piped music,and by psychologists and“human-relations”experts;yet all this oiling does not alter the fact that man has become powerless。that hedoes not wholeheartedly participate in his work and that he is bored with it.In fact,the blue andthe white-collar workers have become economic puppets who dance to the tune of automatedmachines and bureaucratic management.The worker and employee are anxious,not only because they might find themselves out of ajob;they are anxious also because they are unable to acquire any real satisfaction or interest in life.They live and die without ever having confronted the fundamental realities of human existence asemotionally and intellectually independent and productive human beings.Those higher up on the social ladder are no less anxious.Their lives are no less empty thanthose of their subordinates.They are even more insecure in some respects.They are in a highlycompetitive race.To be promoted or to fall behind is not a matter of salary but even more a matterof self-respect.When they apply for their first job,they are tested for intelligence as well as for theright mixture of submissiveness and independence.From that moment on they are tested again andagain--by the psychologists,for whom testing is a big business,and by their superiors,who judgetheir behavior,sociability,capacity to get along,et@C@This constant need to prove that one is as goodas or better than one’s fellow-competitor creates constant anxiety and stress,the very causes ofunhappiness and illness.Am I suggesting that we should return to the preindustrial mode of production or to nineteenthcentury“free enterprise”capitalism?Certainly not.Problems are never solved by returning to astage which one has already outgrown.I suggest transforming our social system for a bureaucraticallymanaged industrialism in which maximal production and consumption are ends in themselves into ahumanist industrialism in which man and full development of his potentialities--those of love and ofreason--are the aims of all social arrangements.Production and consumption should serve only asmeans to this end,and should be prevented from ruling man.
